It’s not a newstand app you don’t get one app that can download multiple issues of a magazine. You can make as many of them as you want, but each one is a separate app. If you’re not a subscriber, you can still make apps, but they’re $395 each, I believe.Īlso, I want to be clear: Single-edition means that you get one app - that is, one publication. But if you’re a subscriber, then you’re on CS6, so that’s no big deal. You also still have to be on CS5, CS5.5, or CS6. But, um, that doesn’t seem likely.) And your app must still be approved by Apple, based on their guidelines. (The solution there is probably for Adobe to just buy Apple and clean up their process. Now, it’s not a perfect solution: You still have to have a $99 Apple developer account, and you still need to deal with Apple’s brutal and confusing “certificate” stuff. And, best of all, Adobe is releasing a new guide to help step you through the process of making your app!.There are new tools for making the same layout work for more than one screen size and dimension - for example, one app that can run on both the older “standard def” iPads and the newer “retina/HD” iPads.(You can do all the design work on a Windows machine it’s just the app-building and submission that requires a Mac.) The new DPS App Builder, which runs on a Mac and lets you piece together your app and get it ready for proofing and publishing.You can create folios easily on your computer and proof them via USB (via Mac) directly on your iPad, without having to upload and download to Adobe’s servers all the time.A new interface for the Digital Publishing Suite (DPS) tools inside InDesign, which makes the whole process of making a folio easier and more intuitive.

Single-edition means apps that you can build, upload, and either give away for free or sell (that’s between you and the Apple iTunes Store)! No additional fees to Adobe, no matter if people download 5 or 50,000 copies. Unlimited single edition iPad apps if you’re an Adobe Creative Cloud subscriber.Today Adobe is announcing a bunch of things that makes us very happy. Finally! If you’ve been wanting to make iPad apps with InDesign, but you’ve been put off by the price and complexity, your time has come.
